INFO

Height 1.5 cm x Width 1.5 cm

All designs are made from layered resin and are limited in production to a maximum of 1000 units for world-wide release. All metal components in this design are made from a lead and nickel free base-metal. However, as of August 2017 nearly all components in new designs including brooch pins, earrings posts, earring studs and necklace chains are made using stainless steel.?Please note that as designs are produced from original illustrations and are hand assembled, hand painted and hand finished, there may be minor differences from piece to piece, making each as unique as the those who wear them. Giftbox included.

CARE

Please be aware that resin is akin to ceramic and glass and therefore may be damaged if dropped or knocked. Keep your Erstwilder companion neatly tucked away in this box when not being worn, avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, water and excessive sunlight and you?ll have a trusted friend for years to come.

All domestic orders are sent via Australia Post's Express Service and take 1-3 business days to arrive after dispatch. Deliveries to major cities should arrive the next business day. All parcels require signature upon delivery. Please state ATL on your order if you wish for your item to be left without a signature. Please note by doing so, Erstwilder and Australia Post are not liable for any missing parcels.

All orders placed before 1:00pm (AEST/AEDT) are processed the same day wherever possible. For exceptions please see the ‘PROCESS AND DELIVERY TIMES’ information. Once your order is processed you will receive a shipping confirmation email complete with tracking details.

If you are located outside of Australia, we offer two services. Both options are FREE with orders over $100 or attract a flat rate of $9.95.

Recommended for all international shipping addresses outside of the USA

After your order has been processed you will receive a shipping confirmation email complete with tracking details. All international orders require a phone number for delivery and must be delivered to a residential address. They cannot be delivered to a PO Box or Hotel.

All orders placed before 1:00pm (AEST/AEDT) are processed the same day wherever possible. For exceptions please see the ‘PROCESS AND DELIVERY TIMES’ information. Once your order is processed you will receive a shipping confirmation email complete with tracking details.

International shipments may incur customs and import taxes. All international customers are responsible for the customs rates within their own country. Erstwilder is required by law to declare the full value paid on international shipments and must include an invoice for customs upon request. For further information, we recommend contacting your local customs office. Our recommendation of international shipping options is based on experience and feedback from our community. DHL Express is a faster service than Australia Post Pack & Track. DHL Express incurs no additional duty/customers charges in the USA (up to $800 RRP) but outside of this region it may carry higher customs/duty taxes and shipping charges depending on your region as compared to Australia Post Pack & Track. Please select the option you would prefer at checkout. Please note that we cannot be held responsible for lost parcels, or packages which are missed by the recipient and ‘returned-to-sender’. As a small business we cannot afford to absorb re-shipping fees and international orders will be re-shipped, upon your request, at a cost of $19.95. Where parcels can be proven to be ‘lost’ we will lodge an investigation with the postal service. Once the outcome has been determined, and where there is no fault of the recipient, we will resend the products but the re-shipping fee of $19.95 will apply. If you refuse to pay any local customs/import duties and taxes and your order is returned to us we retain 20% of the order value to help us cover the additional shipping expenses we are charged.

We’re always looking at ways we can reduce our impact on the environment so, as of September 1 2018, we’ve gone paperless! Rather than including a printed invoice in your parcel you’ll find a link to your invoice in your order confirmation and shipping confirmation emails. We estimate this will save three average size pine trees every year! Can’t find the link? Email us and we’ll email you a copy of the invoice.

All orders placed before 1:00pm (AEDT/AEST) are processed the same day wherever possible. For orders placed within 3 days of a collection launch or other sale/event activity there may be minor delays in order dispatch. Please allow up to five working days to receive confirmation of your order being dispatched.

Once your order is processed you will receive shipping confirmation email complete with tracking details. If you do not receive confirmation emails or Facebook messages please email the team at hello@erstwilder.com.

Deliveries are sent during business hours Monday to Friday. Orders placed on weekends and public holidays will be processed the next business day.

Please note that unfortunately we are unable to make changes to your order or combine orders once submitted. Please ensure all details on your order are correct before submitting your order, in particular we recommend checking your email address, delivery address and contact number.

Due to carrier limitations please note that we are currently unable to ship to the following countries/regions:

Algeria

Cuba

Iran, Islamic Republic Of

Korea, Democratic People's Republic Of (North Korea)

Kuwait

Latvia

Morocco

Nepal

Nigeria

Pakistan

Russia

Saudi Arabia

Sudan

Syria

Some countries cannot be shipped to with a tracked service. If your delivery address is in such a region you will be emailed to confirm if you’d like to proceed before your order is shipped as we cannot be responsible for untracked shipments.

If your parcel is returned to Erstwilder due to not collecting the items, you will be notified to pay a re-shipping fee to send these out again. If you do not want these items re-sent, you will be refunded less the original shipping costs, and a 10% fee for restocking. This doesn’t happen often, but we try to offer very competitive shipping rates, often which we lose money on so we appreciate your understanding that we can’t afford to re-ship orders at our expense.

We want you to love your Erstwilder purchases and know that having super easy returns is part of why you shop with us. That’s why we’re continuing to offer our 60-day refund policy for all purchases on erstwilder.com* We’ll gladly accept a return if you’ve changed your mind for any reason subject to the following conditions:

Items must be returned within 60 days or purchase together with proof of purchase;

Items must be in their original condition with accompanying gift boxes, story cards and swing tags included

Lucky Dips, Perfectly Imperfect and Gift Cards cannot be returned

Earrings are not able to be returned for hygiene reasons

If you return anything with 30-days we’ll issue a refund as usual and after that (up to 31-60 days) you’ll now receive a digital store gift card in place of a refund. As much as we’d love to, we cannot sustain accepting returns after 60-days has past. Please do not send items back without first contacting us - you may need to pay to have them returned to you once again and we’d really rather avoid you spending dollars unnecessarily.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR POSTAGE FEES

Where items are returned due to faults we will of course issue a full refund for the purchase, including any original postage fees paid. That’s only fair. For ‘change of mind’ returns the value of the refund or digital gift card will be to the value of the product only. Also, if your return reduces your original order total to below the free shipping threshold when your order was placed, then the return amount will have original shipping fees subtracted. We think that’s only fair too. Sometimes we’re not able to tell from photos or evidence provided whether there is in fact a fault. If this happens we’ll provide you with a pre-paid returns label in good faith to ship your piece/s back to us but we will need to assess whether we believe a fault exists once your items return to HQ. If we determine that there is no fault you may be required to pay a re-shipping fee to have the item sent to you again.

FAIR USE

Don’t get us wrong, we’re sure 99% of you are lovely, trustworthy and honest people but as a small business we need to protect ourselves from being taken advantage of. So, if we notice a strange pattern of returns we might need to investigate and take action, such as deactivate the account in question. This may be in cases where we think people are wearing items and then sending them back, or ordering multiples of an item during a launch and then consistently returning some. If you find your account deactivated and believe it to be in error please reach out to us at hello@erstwilder.com.

To return an item you’ve ordered you will need to request a pre-paid returns label.

To do so, please email us at hello@erstwilder.com with ‘RETURNS’ in the subject line and be sure to include your contact details, order number and reason for the return in the body of the email. If the return is due to a product fault please also include a photo of the item.

Wait for a reply from our team. And don't worry, we'll get back to you as quickly as possible. If we receive your email by 1:00pm Monday - Friday you'll hear back the same day.

For all approved exchanges or returns we will issue you with a pre-paid returns label which you will receive via the email address entered when placing your order. You can print and take it along to the post office to send your return.

Once the return is received at HQ it will be reviewed and after being cleared you will receive a refund for the purchase price. If the return is for a change of mind you will be refunded the product value less any associated shipping charges (original and return shipping) but with our pre-paid return labels you'll be getting the lowest possible shipping rates. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer change of mind return labels for international customers.

We endeavour to process refunds as soon as they are received but please allow up to 3 business days for returns to be processed. You will receive an email notification of any refund once it has been processed.

We recommend using a traceable delivery method and taking note of your tracking number. We cannot be held responsible for lost returns.

Firstly, we’re terribly sorry. There’s nothing more disappointing than opening a parcel only to find your item is in anything less than perfect condition. And rest assured we’ll get this sorted for you ASAP. Follow the returns process and attach a photo of the fault. If still in stock we’ll replace the item for you otherwise we’ll issue a refund upon receiving your return. Please be sure to contact us regarding any faults within 60-days of your order to ensure we’re able to assist with issuing a refund or store credit in the form of a digital gift card.

Return and exchange policies are subject to the discretion of individual stockists. The same policy stated above may not apply. If you have purchased an Erstwilder product from an authorised stockist any request for a refund or exchange must be first directed to the store of purchase. If you are not happy with their response please reach out to us at hello@erstwilder.com

Due to the limited nature of our pieces, we are unable to offer exchanges on any items. If you would like a different item to one you have ordered we suggest purchasing the new piece and following the returns process for a refund of the original item.

Right here in our hometown of Melbourne, Australia. Though originally designed by Louisa Camille, since late 2014 we've worked with an amazing mix of Australian illustrators and artists. These incredibly talented women are responsible for the design work which brings our collections to life. Elements of the design work are done remotely (within Australia) by the illustration team, but all designs are refined, finalised and submitted into production from our HQ here in Melbourne. Erstwilder design work has and always will be completed locally.

Production has always been completed in China, with components and being sourced across Asia. We've worked with the same wonderful manufacturer right from the beginning and have, over the years, developed wonderful relationships with our equally quirky production team, becoming very close with the small family owned resin producer.

Our designs are not made exclusively by hand, though many of the processes are completed this way. Designs are produced initially from laser cut sheets of resin. Layers are then hand assembled to create that Erstwilder signature depth and dimensionality. All painted detailing is also finished by hand.

Most certainly! Our teams visit the production facilities regularly each year to ensure that workers are operating in an environment which is fair and ethical and that the small family owned and operated business responsible for our production shares these values. No employees are under the age of 18, salaries increase each year in line with living costs and all employees are entitled to join unions should they so choose. Additionally, an independent government organisation visits the facility to ensure all production processes are safe. As a label that exists to spread a little joy in the world, the safety and fair treatment of our production team is of the utmost importance to us.

Many hands are involved in producing an Erstwilder design. The process begins with our illustrators hands; creating unique, original character-based artworks. Once the layers of a given design have been laser cut, the layers and all components are then assembled by hand. Any additional painted detailing is also completed by hand. Because of the manual and human approach we take to production pieces may have slight variations in component sizes, colouring and even resin patterns. We like it this way and tend to think it makes our designs as unique from each other as the wonderful people wearing them.

The main component of all our designs is resin, reminiscent of the gorgeous 1930’s Bakelite originally used for vintage radio and telephone casings. The components used have changed over time. We’re always searching for the best possible quality. At present (for designs released from February 2018 onward), designs are produced using beautiful and strong silver-plated steel brooch pins. All earring posts, earring hooks, necklace chains and jump rings are made from stainless steel. Component information specific to each design can also be found on product pages under the ‘Info’ tab.

All Erstwilder designs are produced in a limited numbers for world-wide release and once sold out they do not return. From time-to-time very popular pieces are brought back with new resin colours or textures but once our production limit is reached, the design is taken off production never to return! In the early years’ production was capped as low at 200 units. The label has increased this over time to a standard maximum of 1500 pieces and an ‘extended limited release’ of 2000 pieces, to enable us to meet the demand from our community and prevent too many people from missing out. But designs released to a given maximum will remain at the limits in place at the time they were produced to ensure their collectability. We also don’t produce the same number of pieces for each design. Rather, we try our best to guess how popular a piece will be and produce accordingly. We’re only human and don’t always get this right (is it rather tricky!) and it does mean we can sell out of styles quickly, so snap your favourites up before they disappear!

But of course! All Erstwilder designs arrive packaged in a delightfully branded gift box. Designs released after February 2015 also include an insert in the lid featuring the design's original sketch, name and story.

We do! And it happens to be every team members’ favourite job here at Erstwilder HQ. The design team, the illustrators, the person answering the phone and the person picking your order all participate in the creative process. And every now and then we throw it out to our community of ‘Erstwildians’ (you!) on Facebook and Instagram to help us name pieces. Last time you named ‘Oscar Wildenfox’ and he’s become one of our favourites!

Yes, please! We’ve even dedicated a page to it on our website. Head over to the Suggestion Box and tell us what we should make next! All your ideas are fed right through to our design team; they love it when some fresh sparks are thrown into their brainstorming sessions.

Check out our stockist page to search your area for recommended Erstwilder stockists. Note that no stockist carries the entire range so either shop online with us or email our team at hello@erstwilder.com and we’ll help you find the designs you’re after in a store near you. Alternatively you can try you luck in the ‘Erstwilder Shop Local’ group on Facebook which has been set up by us specifically to connect you with stockists near you.

Resin is notoriously difficult to photograph due to its reflective nature. We’re often told photos simply don’t do our designs any justice. Colours also display differently on different computer monitors. That said we always do our best to photograph designs to show their colouring as accurately as possible.

We’re always looking at ways we can reduce our impact on the environment so, as of September 1 2018, we’ve gone paperless! Rather than including a printed invoice in your parcel you’ll find a link to your invoice in your order confirmation and shipping confirmation emails. We estimate this will save three average size pine trees every year! Can’t find the link? Email us and we’ll email you a copy of the invoice.

Get in touch right now via Facebook Messenger or Live Chat on our site. We’ll love good chat and we’ll be hanging out there during standard business hours, 9:00am – 5:00pm (AEDT), Monday to Friday. We’ll do our best to check out your Facebook Messages outside of those times too ;)
